The Moon Rule in Photography

There is a similar "moon 1 1, 8, 5.6 rule" when shooting the moon. This law tells us: shoot the moon.

When it is bright, if it is a full moon, use F 1 1, if it is a lack of moon, use F8, if it is a crescent moon, use F5.6, and the shutter speed is

Just use the reciprocal of sensitivity. For example, if the sensitivity is ISO 100, please use the1100s shutter.

This rule also applies to the card machine in the hands of students. The minimum aperture of the card machine is F5.6 or F8, and the moon rule is used.

For example, the aperture is F5.6, the ISO is 100, and the shutter speed is1100s. When shooting, use M file, and then measure the light.

Using spot metering, spot metering mainly ensures that the moon has a gray scale of 18%, from

And accurately shoot a clear moon. 18% grayscale involves some theoretical knowledge, so I won't go into details.

If you don't believe me, you can try to aim at the moon and let the camera evenly distribute the gray level over the whole photo instead of dividing it.

Spread cloth on the moon to see if the sky is gray and the moon is white. If spot metering is aimed at the moon.

If it is light, the surrounding sky will turn into a very black color, and the moon will not be overexposed, and many textures on the moon will.

It shows up.
